correct the entry in the CONFIG.SYS file and reboot the system again. If the Client
Driver reports "Card and Socket Services not found", a version of Card and Socket
Services must be installed on the system or the QSP-200/300 Enabler program must
be used to configure the adapter. If the Client Driver reports the desired adapter
configuration, the installation process is complete and the QSP-200/300 may be
removed and / or inserted from the system as desired. On each insertion into the
PCMCIA socket, the QSP-200/300 will be automatically reconfigured according to
the command line options.

4.1.2 Command Line Options
The QSP-200/300 Client Driver accepts up to eight command line arguments from the user to
determine the configuration of the QSP-200/300. If any arguments are provided, the Client
Driver will attempt to configure any QSP-200/300s with the options specified in the order they
are entered on the command line. Each argument must be enclosed in parenthesis and must be
separated from other arguments by a space on the command line. Within each argument, any or
all of the following parameters may be specified using a comma (no spaces) to separate each
parameter:

Baddress

specifies the base I/O address of the QSP-200/300 in hexadecimal and must reside
on an even 32-byte (20H) boundary. If this option is omitted, a base address will be
assigned by Card and Socket Services.

Iirq

specifies the interrupt level (IRQ) of the QSP-200/300 in decimal. irq must be one
of the following values: 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, or 0 if no IRQ is desired. If
this option is omitted, an interrupt level will be assigned by Card and Socket
Services.

Ssocket

specifies which PCMCIA socket the QSP-200/300 must be inserted into for this
configuration argument to be used. socket must be in the range 0 - 15. If this option
is omitted, the configuration argument will apply to QSP-200/300s inserted into any
socket.

Omode

specifies RS-422/485 output driver mode. The QSP-200/300’s ports may be
configured for either full duplex or half duplex operation with this option. If this
option is omitted, the default setting is the RS-422/485 ports are configured for full
duplex operation with the RS-422/485 output drivers always enabled. In half duplex
mode, the RS-422/485 transmitter may be enabled and disabled via the RTS (request
to send) or DTR (data terminal ready) signals. Both RTS and DTR are controlled
through the Modem Control Register of the 16550. See the Hardware Information
section for more information.
